Would love to see Short and Spice 1 get back with Ant Banks or EA just one more time bruh...Still on my dinosaur shyt, Mekanix carrying the torch but damn it would be dope for Banks to get behind the boards again. Recently took a pic with Eiht, Spice, C-Bo couple more cats. Banks look like he doing good, healthy.

I know, I know...but he can't.

Nope, E-40 been reached his peak years ago. He’s just following the kids and doing what they doing at this point. He threw away his unorthodox rap style that got him known in the first place. He puts younger hot artist on his songs to stay relevant. That’s why every video he drops it has kids dancing. E-40 is getting his Peter Pan on at this point. I love E-40 hustle but it is what it is.
Meh. He'll do it for a few songs but most the artists he be having on his albums don't even be hot like that

honest question: how do you feel about Andre 3000 and Outkast?

Andre3000 is one of the most overrated rappers in HipHop history. How you never put out ONE solo rap album and still get put in Top 5/10? He don’t even got the balls to even try because of what people might say but had no problem wearing green and pink wigs and dressed like a complete weirdo. That’s not a top rapper to me. As a group Outkast are living legends.

Okay I can feel it, now I just used this as an example... because most people feel that way completely. Would you rather have E-40 and Too Short be like Andre or still produce content and put people on into their 60s? I know the answer could also be neither too... if you'd rather just have them do them and stand up as solo artists. How do you feel about Snoop letting people write for him since Blue Carpet Treatment, as a way to put people on and get them paid more?

I don’t mind what E-40 is doing don’t bother me. I will always still check out his newer music and pull a gem or two out for my E-40 playlist. I just know the days of him dropping a album like Major Way is long gone. E-40 put out a few dope artist back in the days but like now he’s putting out rappers that’s for this generation so I can’t really get into them.

I’m from the 90s generation so I’m real always looking for that type of sound when I check for music these days. I can’t get into this new stuff much but I’m not salty about it. I got enough music on my hard drive and Spotify to hold me down till I die.

As far as Snoop I don’t care about him using ghost writers as long as it’s dope music. It did break my heart to find out rappers used ghost writers at first (Ice Cube, Run DMC, Mc Lyte, King Tee) but hey if the music is good why should I or anybody trip it’s the end product that we listen to that matters. Clowning Drake is just a fun thing to do but I don’t care about him using a ghost writer. I don’t even listen to his music. Too soft for my taste. It’s like trying to listen to a whole PM Dawn album lol naw I’m cool with that lol

Too Short really should have stopped after the Can’t Stay Away album.
He seems to be diluting his legacy with every new release and the quality of his projects used to be second to none.

The tracks on here ... some are ok but the majority should have remained in the vault.
I was really thinking yessssss when I Saw Shorty B and Pee Wee listed. Let down..
